Text Appearing Before Image: THE LAST PORT CLOSED Fort Fisher, captured January 1j, 1S65. With the capture of Fort Fisher, Wilmington, the great importing depot of the South, onwhich General Lee said the subsistence of his army depended, was finally closed to all blockade runners. The Federal navy con-centrated against the fortifications of this port the most powerful naval force ever assembled up to that time—fifty-five ships of war,including five ironclads, altogether carrying six hundred guns. The upper picture shows the nature of the palisade, nine feet high,over which some two thousand marines attempted to pass; the lower shows interior of the works after the destructive bombardment.
